The Texans (11-8) have never won in six division games. They have lost twice to Kansas City.
Houston quarterback CJ Stroud threw for 245 yards but was sacked eight times. Joe Mixon, who was questionable to play with an ankle injury, caught a pair of passes while running for 88 yards and a touchdown.
Texans kicker Kai’imi Fairbairn missed a 55-yard field goal attempt and an extra point attempt and had another field goal attempt blocked with 1:46 left, which would have kept Houston’s comeback hopes alive by making it a one-possession game .
